**Now Sold** 2007/57 UK 350z 313 GT Coupe, Night Blue, Frost Leather, 25,950 Miles

Well, the time has come...

 

...It’s been a difficult decision to make, but I have reluctantly decided to sell my beloved Zed due to extensive and expensive renovations we are undertaking on our house. I will be buying a little runabout for the next couple of years, until finances recover and I have the time to enjoy something special again.

 

The car is a late UK GT 350Z, with the 313PS HR engine, registered September 28th 2007 on a 57 Plate. I have owned the car for over 3 years now and have loved every minute of it.

 

I originally bought this particular car due to the very rare and high specification the first owner chose. It is Night Blue metallic with the very rare Frost Leather interior (both options only available on the HR models from 2007-onwards). It has SatNav and Reverse Parking Sensors fitted from new, so basically every option that could be chosen. I am the third owner of the car, and it has been supplied to every owner, including when new, by Westover Nissan in Bournemouth, who are a specialist Nissan HPC Dealer.

The car is completely standard and in excellent condition with only 25,950 miles (will increase slightly, as it is in daily use), it has full Nissan Service History, comprising 6 stamps in the book, 5 of which are with a Nissan HPC Dealer, the other is with a different Nissan Franchised Dealer. During my ownership, the car has only ever been serviced using quality Full-Synthetic Oils, it has also only ever been run on Shell V-Power or (rarely) Tesco 99. It has four matching Bridgestone RE050A Tyres (OEM Spec), all of which are about half-worn. It is taxed until November 2013 and MOT’d until June 2014. The last service was a P2 done on 18th February 2013, so the next will be a minor P1 service.

 

As stated above, the car is in excellent and original condition. The Rays wheels are in excellent condition with no kerbing marks whatsoever. The bodywork is in beautiful condition, and was professionally detailed by Pristine Detailing (Wasso on 350z-uk.com) last year, and has been maintained carefully as the pictures show. The only negatives on the bodywork are a very small carpark dent on one rear wheelarch and the usual stone chips to the bumper and bonnet; this is common with all of these cars and is to be expected as it has never been painted. The interior is in excellent condition with no rips, tears or marks. As you should expect, all the electrics work properly, including ice-cold aircon and a Bose CD player that doesn't skip.

 

Being a UK GT it has the usual high specification items such as:

* Full leather interior (frost grey)

* Heated and electrically adjustable seats

* Cruise control

* Climate Control

* 18 inch RAYS alloys (excellent condition)

* BOSE 6xCD player/radio with 6 speakers and subwoofer behind driver seat

* Steering wheel audio controls

* Bluetooth phone system (complete)

* Brembo brakes

* Bi-Xenon headlights

* Remote central locking, alarm, imobilizer

 

In addition to the above, the car has a Nissan Tonneau Cover fitted, which separates the two areas of the boot, to give a large space at the rear which can’t be seen from outside the car and stops things moving forward when you are driving. The tonneau involves cutting holes in the boot carpet for the brackets to pass through, but I also have a spare boot carpet without holes that will be included in the sale. Also included are genuine Nissan 350Z Floor Mats, so the carpets are in very good condition beneath them.

 

The car was HPI clear when I bought it, has not been damaged since and I have no finance outstanding on it.

 

Honestly, I have loved owning this car, and will really miss it when its gone – every drive feels a bit special in these cars. I know in a couple of years’ time I will regret selling, as I would not be able to find another in the same specification, but I don’t use it enough to justify keeping it, so somebody else is going to get a real beauty here.

 

I am looking for £12,500 ONO.

 

I am located near Wimborne in Dorset.

 

Thank-you for reading.

GLWTS! I've seen this car in the flesh a few times and it's wonderful. Really good condition, the best colour (Midnight Blue) and also has the (first time i've seen it in a Zed) Frost Leather. [The last time i saw frost leather was in my 2000MY 200sx!] This car deserves to go to a good home. Sad that you need to sell her; a car this nice won't be for sale for long i don't think! B)

Thanks for all the kind comments folks :thumbs:

 

The low mileage is really the clincher for me, too - I'm just not getting the time to use and enjoy it as much as it deserves.

 

Who knows, when the house is all done, I might be back around here again, but I'd be sure I won't find another night blue with frost :byebye:

Just sold it tonight - they're picking it up on Friday

 

I will point the new owner in the direction of this forum - he seems like a real petrol head, and I'm sure its going to a good home.

 

Just wanted to say thanks to the great community on here and to all those who have helped me along the way - this really is the freindliest forum I know :thumbs:

 

Off to cry into a beer now :byebye:

Dave I'm mad with you, god damn mad.

 

Now with the cash you now have go and get a 70!

 

Don't dissapear because you've got some good friends on here. I didn't post because I didn't want you to sell.

 

You will be missed in Wales like you were this year, so to save the pain get a 70.

 

But as you wanted to sell I appreciate that, so all the best to you. :thumbs:

I'm already sad enough without reading your message of sorrow, too :blackeye::lol:

 

Seriously, though, you were one of the people I meant when I said thanks - your company in Wales last year was great, and all of the hard work with your detailing session last year really gave me a car I was proud of :thumbs: I didn't list everybody individually, as I'm sure I would have missed somebody out - this really is a terrific friendly place :)

 

Can I hang around for a while and bring a French hatchback to a meet sometime, please?

Congrats on the sale - it'll be a bit bitter sweet but never mind :console: I've been watching it on PH in the vain hope I'd get a new job before you punted it :lol:

Mate you're more than welcome along with Kate.

 

I just shown Jayne your full story...... She said "what a shame". She's gutted.

 

Glad you loved the work I provided. Your car was a gem to work on, and I mean that.

 

:console:

I was very tempted myself to purchase your car but just couldn't meet the price tag.

 

All the best mate and enjoy the memories.
